The 33rd/65th Leicester Scout Group, along with their Leader Cathy Kennell, visited LOROS to donate £40.00 from their ice bucket challenge.
During their visit they were given a tour of the hospice and were treated to drinks and cakes.
Wendy Marshall, Fundraising Co-ordinator said “It was lovely to meet the scouts and we are so grateful for them for raising money for LOROS from their ice bucket challenge.”
As you may have previously heard, LOROS is experiencing severe financial challenges due to a sharp rise in our running costs, a significant drop in gifts from wills and ever-increasing demand for our services.
At LOROS, we are acutely aware of the ongoing conversation surrounding assisted dying in the UK, particularly following the recent passing of the Assisted Dying Bill through parliament.
LOROS Hospice has unveiled a special celebrity supporter of its new Stomp Round Leicester art trail. Artist Daft-apeth, aka Serge Pizzorno, lead singer of Leicester rock band Kasabian, has designed one of the 40 giant elephants that form the art trail.
